Extra-curricular Activities

The school has an excellent reputation for sporting achievement and for the quality of our stage productions.

Numerous other extra-curricular activities take place at Baysgarth and these vary from time to time according to the interests of the individual staff who offer them. However, we always have a common core of clubs which run both at lunchtime and after school. Everyone is entitled and encouraged to join clubs and parents help with transport for those who live in the villages.

In addition to running clubs and teams, we arrange numerous social outings during the year. Longer excursions are also organised, for example foreign exchanges and trips to a variety of places.

This year the school has once again provided a wide range of extra-curricular activities for pupils. We have taken them on trips ranging from the theatre in London to the dizzy skyscrapers of New York. We have offered them Outward Bound in the Lake District and skiing in Schladming, Austria.

Closer to home, trips have been organised to Meadowhall, the cinema, ten-pin bowling and ice-skating.

Activities in school include Rock Challenge, Fashion Passion, Talent Show, sports clubs and computer club. The school production in January 2005 was Bugsy Malone.
